Uncle Roger's Notebooks of Daily Life

Introduction

My life is, to me, ripe with frequent challenges, occasional successes, spontaneous laughter, adequate tears, and enough *life* to last me a lifetime. To you, however, it surely seems most pedestrian. And therefore, I recycle the name I used previously and call this my Notebooks of Daily Life. Daily, because it's everyday in nature, ordinary. These conglomeration of events that are my life are of interest to me because I live it, perhaps mildly so to those who are touched by it, and could only be of perverse, morbid curiosity to anyone else. Yet, I offer them here nonetheless. Make of them what you will, and perhaps you can learn from my mistakes.

Pee-Pee Girl

Sara and I were taking a shower this morning when she walked across the bathroom, lifted the cover of Jared's potty, and sat down. She did this twice, actually, and when she was done, sure enough, there was pee in the potty. It was most likely a fluke, of course, but at least it's a good sign.

Singin' In The Rain

Jared's latest television favorite is Singin' In The Rain -- the classic musical with Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds, and Donald O'Connor. Luckily, we brought it with us to Tahoe because he must have watched it at least a dozen times lying on the couch. I'm not exactly sure why a three-and-a-half year old kid would be so into it, but I'm also not exactly surprised.

His maternal grandmother is the director (supposedly retired now) of a musical theatre company, a dancer and dance teacher, actress, and singer. His maternal grandfather is a jazz pianist who played piano and keyboards for all the big shows here in town, including Singin' in the Rain. His mother taught tap dance for about a dozen years or so before becoming a school teacher. On the other side, his paternal grandmother was a pianist (classical) and while his paternal grandfather claimed only to play the radio, he was certainly enthusiastic and knowledgeable about music. I've taken tap (before I met Rachel, even) as has his Uncle Harry and Uncle Daniel.

I guess it's not surprising at all, really.
